RomaStories

It needs examples, positive examples, to get to know the Roma, how they are and not how we see them, with the Rucksack of antiziganistic prejudice.
The Movie „RomaStories“ is about Roma Biographies, that are opening in a spiral from inside to outside. The speak about their own culture, away from ascription. It is about “being roma”, the being “here”, it is about presenting the own culture away from any interpretation, which was projected on the Roma for centuries.
The Movie is processing different topics, under the main context of „Positive Roma Pictures“ and tryes to convey and to illuminate about the Roma. On this issues the Movie gives insights on the History, transgenerational traumatization, discrimination in schools, the term “Zigeuner/Gypsy” and have a block on “what can we do?”.
